I am trying to figure this out, my wheat beer, followed a trick I used on a all barley grain beer, during the secondary ferment I added a simple-sugar brown sugar and more yeast.
It tasted good, hoppy, then a week later I force kegged it heavy (100psi) 48hrs, then bottled it, we (my wife and I) both tasted it, sickly sweet, nasty, not even like beer. I was going to dump it all.
Then today (next day) I was pouring it out saving the bottles, I tasted one, there in the bottom of the bottle is a yeast ring, flavor is bitter-hoppy, not absolutely great, but very drinkable. Better than store bought swill for sure.
What happened? was it the yeast? or?? Also even thou I cleaned the carboy, made with spring water, used irish moss, it is still murky cloudy.
(alcohol abuse, pouring 18 out)
